HSX Alternative

Posted by: jickerson on May 30, 06:25

First and foremost i want to say that i thoroughly enjoy HSX and will continue to play it. With that being said, does anyone know of an alternative to HSX that mimics real markets more (a la a zero-sum game). What i was thinking is something where the number of shares stays fixed throughout the life of the movie and the IPO is set so the total outstanding market cap gets close to the movies budget (I guess techinically it wouldn't be a zero-sum game because if movies make money on average, the economy would expand). Therefore, to trade a stock you would need to find someone to stand on the other side of the trade (or change your price until you do).

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that HSX should change... just curious if there is anything else out there that comes close?
